There are two new law changes to the Australian Football Laws of the Game in 2021 that apply to community football.
The VAFA adopted one of these law changes.
Summary
Law Change 1: Location of The Mark at Kick Ins
Detailed at Law 17 The Mark shall be set at 15 metres from the centre of the Kick-Off Line towards the centre of the ground at Kick Ins. This was previously set at 10 metres in 2019.
Other elements to this rule:
Law Change 2: Player Standing The Mark
Detailed at Law 20 The defending player will only be permitted minimal lateral movement (ie; ‘stand’) on The Mark. If the defending player moves off The Mark in any direction prior to “Play On” being called, a 50-metre penalty will apply. The defensive team is unable to substitute the Player on The Mark.
The VAFA will monitor the impact of this rule change in community football in season 2021, as well as seek feedback from players, coaches, and umpires about the future of this rule in our competition.
A reminder to clubs that 6-6-6 (starting positions) and restrictions on runners also do not apply in the VAFA. All other rules are as per the Laws of Australian Football.
